Liam's Pov

It had surely been longer than 30 minutes by now. These white walls made me fell sick and the hospital smell was not at all comforting. I felt my hands tingling because my hand had gone numb due to me leaning my head in them. I never liked the feeling of pins and needles, Riley did she's just an odd person. The thoughts of Riley were spiralling round my head continuously, it was my fault she had fallen down the stairs. I pushed her. The guilt was murderous and felt like a stab threw the heart. How did i do this to my little sister, all because of that stupid fucking guy. Dad!

I stood up in anger and stormed over to the front desk, only to be meet with a girl and her moody features.

"Where's my sister? its been longer than 30 minutes!" I said sternly, trying to stay calm and not lose it but not too soft too show i was being serious.

She looked up from sitting on her arse and smirked at me. She was young with blonde hair, her cheek bones where evident and her lips where glossy pink. She was attractive but that was besides the point. She had a shitty personality and i could just tell.

"Oh yeah she's in room 213" She shifted her glare at me back to the computer she was looking at.

I then moved away from my desk and saw a sign that directed me to room 213, It was up two levels on the left hand side of the building.

"Room 213!" I said to the rest of my brothers who were sat down, they got up quickly and Jacob aggressively pressed the lift button.

"Liam where are you going?" Toby asked me with confusion and stress upon his face.

"Taking the stairs." I turned back to the direction i was walking almost immediately and pushed through the double doors leading to the stairs. I couldn't stand and wait for the lift.

I started running up the stairs taking two steps at a time. I heard someone behind me but i ignored it until i realised they were right beside me, it was Caleb. We glanced a look at each other then continued up the stairs.

We reached level two and swung the doors open. A sign was right in front of out faces telling us that Riley's room was on the left. We walked at a fast pace looking at every room number until we found room 213.

Caleb reached for the handle and hesitated before opening it up, consumed by his thoughts. He turned his head slightly towards me so i could see his face.

"Was it dad?" He asked simply and almost sounded fragile. I nodded softly.

He opened the door and we were immediately settled to seeing Riley, even though she was unconscious. I'll admit it she looked awful, compared to her usual pretty face. We walked closer towards her, pulling up some chairs as we did. Issac was stood at the window looking out While Leo was sat on a chair next to her with his head in his hands. None of them looked up at us, or the rest of them when they came in.

We all circled around her bed in silence as we just watched her chest go up and down. We all waited for someone to stay something but no one did until a man came in and did it for us.

"I'm guessing your all brothers?" He spoke loudly in the once quite room. A few yeah's i heard muttered and nods from us all.

"Well she had quite a hard fall, she lost a lot of blood but her heads stitched up. She must have hit her head harder than we initially though because she's got quite a server concussion but nothing to worry about, it will clear up in a few day to a week. She's also sprained her wrist and got bruises but she fine." He Smiled slightly at us all and then left.

"Did you ring dad?" Caleb said directed to Issac.

"He wasn't answering." He replied folding his arms.

"Right okay." The anger on his face was quite evident and I'm pretty sure it was on mine too.

The anger was knocking out of us when we head a rustle of the covers and a few grunts. We all flung our heads to Riley to see her eyes opened looking at us.

"I'm not some dinosaur skeleton in a museum, you can stop staring." She said, turning to her side closing her eyes once again.

I dug in my pocket of my hoodie and pulled out a familiar teddy. I placed it on the bed next to her and she opened her eyes slowly.

She didn't say anything but she smiled at me to say thank you as she snuggled up closer to floppy.

"Thank Caleb, not me." I whispered close to her. She looked up at Caleb who was sitting next to me and smiled.

"Yeah i brought you some stuff i thought you might want." He brought the bag up on to the bed and opened it up.

Riley's Pov

"Yes my pillow" I sat up quickly to grab my pillow but then realised it wasn't a good idea and cried out in pain.

Issac stood up quickly and held the back of my head with one hand then grabbed the pillow and placed it behind me with the other. He lowered me down slowly so it wouldn't hurt.

"Yeah don't do that, just rest Riley." Leo said from the other side of me as he grabbed my hand.

"You all need to take a chill pill, I'm fine stop being so weird i don't like it." I said.

"How did it even happen?" Jacob asked.

"I just fell, you know how clumsy i am." I replied. I felt Liam look at me, he knew he pushed me but i wasn't blaming him.

"Well you need to not be, you scared the shit out of me, out of all of us." Issac said angrily.

"Stop shouting at me." I said quietly, i really didn't like it when Issac shouts at me. He's a scary guy.

"I'm not shouting!" He shouted back at me.

"Yes you are." i said a little louder this time.

"I brought you hoodies." Caleb said trying desperately to stop the argument and i thanked god he did.

"Thank you, I'm cold in just this shitty gown whatever it is, i want to take it off." I said annoyed.

"Well i brought tracky bottoms and shorts too." He replied.

"What about fluffy socks?"

"Yep fluffy socks too." He held the fluffy socks in his hand and threw them to Toby who was closest to my feet.

"I can put them on my self I'm not a baby." I laughed a little. I didn't want them to see my scars, they looked bad and I'd done it around 8 times in the last month, so they where everywhere on my feet.

"Come on just let me do it, it's not that big of a deal Riley." Toby said while separating the socks from the pair they were in.

"I said i can do it my fucking self!" I yelled, as i pulled my feet closer to me so he couldn't reach them.

"Riley stop being stu-"

"For fucks sake just give me the socks" I cut him of clearly angry, he gave in and threw the socks to me. I sat up very slowly moving like a sloth. I felt my feet under the cover and took off the socks i had on and slipped the fluffy socks on.

"I'm hungry!" I said loudly so they all could here me." But i don't want shitty hospital food."

"What do you want?" Jacob asked, standing up and pulling his car keys out his pocket.

"hmm..." I said smiling and rubbing my fake beard. " I'll have 20 chicken nuggets and a Fanta WITH ice. I also want Asda cherry tomatoes and my water bottle with water from the fridge at home."

"Your a pain in the arse." He glared while smiling at me.

"That's what I'm here for." I smiled back.

"Anyone coming with? and what do you all want " He asked before opening the door. Everyone spoke at the same time.

"I'll come." Cory said standing up, Toby also went with them because he didn't know what he wanted from maccies yet.

"Text on the group chat, I'm not gonna remember." Everyone got there phones out and started typing, and multiple pings rang from numerous phones.

They both walked out and left us in silence.

"Liam." Issac said and gestured his head towards the door. Liam got up and walked out, Issac followed him out and closed the door.

"What happened Riley?" Caleb asked looking down at his hands.

"What do you mean?" I asked wearily.

"Liam told me it was Dad so just tell us." He look straight at me while Leo looked between both of us. Did i want to tell him? No. Did i have a choice? No.

"I erm... saw him open the boot of his car... he had guns and massive stacks of money." I gulped, regretting telling them.

"What the fuck!" Caleb yelled.

Leo got up in fury and ended up punching a wall. Caleb remained in his seat.

"Leo Stop please!" I yelled.

"What do you want me to do eh? Be completely fine that it was his fault this happened in the first place. And Liam's probably telling Issac right now. Its all fucked up Riley how do you want me to act." he shouted back.

"Stop punching fucking walls! that's not going to do anything. I can't fucking move my head without it hurting do you think I'm okay with this? No  I'm not but there's nothing i can do so sit the fuck down and stop!" I shouted loud feeling the strain on my throat.

Just at that moment a very furious Issac walked in followed by Liam.

"Why the fuck didn't you tell me?" Issac shouted. I stayed quite hoping someone else would speak but the silence loomed instead. "Why did you keep that from me? I let that guy in the fucking house, don't you understand that he's dangerous. He's got what guns? Look what its lead to, Our little sister lying in a fucking hospital bed because she was chasing after an angry Liam. Your all stupid don't you understand that." He shouted at all of us. Not gonna lie i was slightly scared. I clung onto Floppy tighter, and closed my eyes.

I zoned out for the rest of the argument i didn't want to listen, I needed to contain myself. It was all too stressful. The shouts were so loud i had to cover my ears with my hands and go under the covers, i then grabbed Dave out of the bag and ended up falling asleep amongst all the noise. How? i will never know.
